Nick, Can you request another license file? The info in the .license file that is shown in your email below does not appear to be valid. There is no record of it in our license system (or more accurately, number 14743 has different data than that shown). Was it obtained recently?
Our current licensing scheme has been used since at least 1999, so I think the history of how it came about has been lost. Changing it now I think might skew the stats we've collected over the years.
